This week was quite literally a party! 

With all of the christmas parties this week, we only had a few full days of work, but boy did we work on those days. Hermana Pingry has been training me up on making contactos in the street, which is definitely not my favorite thing to do. But it is fun to see people light up when we talk about Jesus, and to hear all about people's lives! I've gotten really good at my lines: “somos misioneras por la Iglesia de Jesucristo...”, “somos de los estados unidos”, “La capilla es…” and so many more!


A quick rundown+pictures!

Nacho got his mission call!! He got called to Buenos Aires Sur! Which is the same mission as another sister from the branch and everyone was soo excited!!


We had our christmas conference this week which was a party!! I got to see hermana gerstner 🥳 we had a talent show, and then did a little secret santa gift exchange! Hermana gerstner had me, and gave me what might be the best gift I have ever received!!! DR PEPPER, and if that wasn't enough, she also gave me some sick off brand crocs, and some dulce de leche. She just knows me so well 😭🫶

We also had our branch christmas dinner which was super fun! We sang a bunch of Christmas songs and watched President Nelson's talk from the christmas devotional! 


Literally all of our friends were really struggling this week, so I was looking for a little quote or scripture to send to them and found this! It's from the talk “God knows and loves you” from this past general conference, by Elder Alan T. Phillips:

You are His child. If you are feeling lost, if you have questions or lack wisdom, if you are struggling with your circumstances or wrestling with spiritual dissonance, turn to Him. Pray to Him for comfort, love, answers, and direction. Whatever the need and wherever you are, pour out your heart to your Heavenly Father. For some, you may want to follow President Nelson’s invitation and ask “if He is really there—if He knows you. Ask Him how He feels about you. And then listen.”

I invite all of you to do exactly that! Pour out your heart to God, and I promise he will answer. It may not be in the time or way that you want, but it will come!! He really is our loving Heavenly Father and he wants to hear from us! 


Love and miss you all!! Hope you’re having the best Christmas!

Holaa todos! So sorry I had no time to write an email last week so here's just a quick update on the last little bit! Played soccer for p-day for the first time in my mission. I may have gotten a little bit competitive!  Had Zone conference!! It was so good! We talked all about becoming/helping others become lifelong disciples of Christ! Plus I got to see my bestie Hermana Jensen! We're still praying for the day we get to be comps! LIDIA GOT BAPTIZED!! I mean it when I say that Lidia is the most kind, loving, selfless person I've ever met! She's become our mom here in San Fran and I just love her so much!  Had zone p-day in Arroyito! Played some more soccer, ate some churi pan and played some Uno! Plus I bought the sickest shorts, son buenísimo  Celebrated Hermana Mascarenhas’ birthday!! The members here are so precious and surprised her with a birthday cake! Went to visit one of our friends and they had a little baby pig! It even had a little sweater! I have literally ...

Hola everyone!! This weekend was seriously full of miracles!! Friday night we went to visit Nadia and Miguel (our recent converts) and Miguel's son was there! They had been telling him about the plan of salvation, and he wanted to know more! So we taught him all about God's plan for us, and it went so good!! Then the next night we went to visit them again and another one of Nadia's sons was there!! I literally had Deja Vu. We taught him all about the plan of salvation and how we're here to be happy! He said he's gonna come to church next week with Nadia!! Literally loco!!  And the biggest miracle of all!!! ANA AND GABI'S PAPERS CAME!!! Ana and Gabi are our friends who have been waiting for months for Ana's birth certificate to come so that they can get married and get baptized! Gabi is the older brother of Luis, who starts his mission next monday, so we've been praying that the papers would come before Luis leaves. But not gonna lie, we were starting to ...
